-----------------

All I need to do is pull out the user (-nomard, -name omard) and the
number of pages printed (fileend -p241819, subtract filestart -p241810).

I can think of ways of pulling a single variable out (username, #pages
at start, #pages at end), but can't figure out how to pull out all 3
simultaneously.

i'm hoping to parse through the past year's worth of logs and create a
cumulative total, broken down by user and month.

I recently saw a perl regex that could do this, but it was too complex
for me to follow.

Any suggestions, pointers, tips?  I really need this report fairly soon,
unfortunately.

TIA

Jonathan Glass
